Brown popcorn
Is my charm
You celebrate now
Moonlight mucungê
From the Gávea rock
Flew unknowingly
That warmed the spoken 'A'
And the most sacred
That separated the still sea
From the ill-tempered

Greek warriors
Come see black sailboats

At the moment you land
In the honey heart
Retouch what you touch
Fraction by fraction
Brown popcorn
Malandro is the flavor
Waiting not expecting
Loving a lot
Not speaking Esperanto
Portuguese banto

Come see black sailboats
(Cooome)
